Yet another stereotype. And here's another - I've found many
people that talk of the *real world* actually have experience
of a small part of it. Do you fit this one, Jerry?

Significant parts of computer science are only accessible to
someone with considerable academic training. Snyder is
embarked on this path, and I thought his comments were appropriate.
How is following this path not *real world*?

BTW, this discussion is also continuing in net.cse, with a partially
different group of subscribers.
